After The Ice by Steven J. Mithen
A Global Human History, 20,000-5000 BC
A vivid synthesis of global archaeology tracing how hunter-gatherers adapted to dramatic post-glacial climate change between 20,000 and 5,000 BCE, following people across Africa, Europe, Asia, Oceania, and the Americas as sea levels rose and environments shifted. Blending scientific evidence with evocative reconstructions of daily life, it explores the emergence of domestication, sedentism, and new technologies, culminating in the rise of farming communities, towns, and growing social complexity that laid foundations for later civilizations.
